DOENÇA FALCIFORME: DICAS para manter a saúde e RISCOS para portadores do traço

I am Professor Dr. Helen Santos, and I have Sickle Cell Disease. Therefore, in this video, I will share tips for achieving a more stable health status in the context of sickle cell anemia. I will also discuss the effects of Hydroxyurea (hydrea) on my life. I will also talk about the newborn screening test (heel prick test), genetic counseling, as well as the genetic risks for carriers of the sickle cell trait who want to have children. Every June 19th, the world raises awareness about Sickle Cell Disease (SCD), which is why Meu Universo Biológico produced this summary video: everyone who loves someone with the disease, has the disease, or is studying it for exams should know. The incidence of SCD is one case for every 1,400 live births.
